  1. life360? Also measures driving erratically and logs activity for a week. You can also set up zones that if the person leaves it you get a notification.
  2. So i am not getting my NZ citizenship papers?
  3. sorry. That came across abrupt. What I meant to say was that I am a tapatalk user. So without the benefit of comic sans being visible, your post just appeared to be rather “douchy”. Perhaps a suggestion for all users using comic sans is to also use the /s denotation?
  4. no comic sans on Tapatalk.
  5. not sure anyone has asked you to ask these questions on their behalf. If you don’t like the option of the premium bike hub then don’t subscribe. If you have your own questions then ask them.
  6. Can premium members be allowed to “dislike” a post? [emoji23]
  7. Just bought myself a new membership to the bikehub. Can this go on this thread?
  8. Yeah, I am the same. The amount of friendships I have formed on this site over the years is worth way more. Plus, good work deserves to be rewarded.
  9. wow. That story is hardcore. People are gross.
  10. I enjoy cleaning immensely. Something quite satisfying in the immediate results and it makes me feel like I accomplished something.
  11. Hi Ed. The simplest answer is to not iron at all. Im not kidding. We do our normal laundry in the front loader, then tumble dry it, we make sure we fold the laundry as soon as it comes out the drier. With professional work clothes (especially dress shirts) I wash them separately in their own load at the end of the week and then hang them wet on a hanger. They dry straight. If there are a few small creases, they tend to sort themselves out after wearing the shirt for an hour against a warm body anyway. Most of the KIWI mates we have do the same thing. It also pays to change they type of clothes you buy over time. I now also consider the fabric type when I buy clothes. For other cleaning, clean as you go. We have a 5 bedroom 3 level house that we can give a proper clean in 1 hour. We do this once a week. I cannot believe how reliant on a domestic worker we were in South Africa. Now we do all of our housework, gardening and laundry ourselves and have no issues with it. As far as I can tell, the only drawback is that with tumble drying, my T-shirts dont last very long. Maybe 2 years.
  12. This machine can synthesise almost any taste without the calories. Taste-o-vision anyone? https://gizmodo.com/this-lickable-screen-can-recreate-almost-any-taste-or-f-1843609903?IR=T
  13. So, the New Balance are now relegated to walking shoes. These are on the way from Brooklyn NY
  14. any suggestions for a nice weekend away this weekend? Driveable from AKL.
  15. sounds like all my other hobbies. 1. Looks really easy 2. Is actually really difficult 3. A black hole for money [emoji23]
  16. Resin pouring is something I am desperate to play with. Looks like fun.
  17. I think I have lived here for too long. I look at that and think " Man, that's awesome. But I don't want to have to clean it every week" HA HA HA
  18. I reckon that is going to be one of the hardest hit regions.
  19. first run not too good. Lots of hotspots and they felt pretty heavy. I miss my nikes.
  20. Thanks folks. Getting Nike’s in Nz is a challenge at the moment. There are two options. Go to a Nike store, these are generally operated by casual workers at school and the level of running specific advice is terrible as they are not experienced. Or online from Nike head office. This can take 3-4 weeks with shipping delays. We are very far away and our borders are closed so not a lot of flights to carry freight. Yesterday I went to a running speciality store and tried on a whole heap of different shoes while chatting to the owner. After about 9 different pairs, I settled on the New Balance 1080v10. The store has a 30 day return policy so if it’s horrible I can return them. Will do a 15 km break in run today to test them out.
  21. Hi folks. I need a shoe recommendation please. My two favourite shoes are the Nike Vaporfly 4% and the Nike Zoomfly flyknit. The Vaporfly's were bought first but the soles perished quite quickly so I bought the Zoomfly as they had a slightly tougher sole. Both of these shoes are discontinued and the replacements are really difficult to find. Can anyone offer me some good advice on an alternative pair of shoes?
